Answer:

b) In nature, only embryonic stem cells give rise to all the different types of cells in the organism.

Explanation:

Embryonic stem cells are special type of cells formed in the embryonic stage of the life cycle of a living organism. Embryonic stem cells are capable of differentiating into every other type of cells that exists in an organism. Besides the embryonic stem cells, other types of stem cells exist, one of which is the adult stem cell.

The adult stem cell is a type of stem cell found in the tissues of adult organisms as opposed to those found in the embryo. One substantial difference between the embryonic and adult stem cells is that the embryonic stem cells are the only type of stem cells capable of giving rise to all the different types of cells in an organism i.e. embryonic stem cells are capable of differentiation while adult stem cells are not.

Vikentia [17]

Answer:

A

Explanation:

Half life is the time it takes for a substance to reduce to half of the original composition. All the substances in graph start at 1000 particles and the half of thousand particles is 500. If you scan 500 and look at the X-axis for hours, we see it takes A the shortest amount of time (~3hrs) to reduce to half of original composition, whereas rest of them take more than that.
